Topic
Our topic for the Autumn term is....
The Stone Age!
We will start this topic by looking at some of Liverpool's famous landmarks and the history of Liverpool. We will then go on to explore the River Mersey and how this was important in Liverpool's history.
Our learning will also have a focus on geography skills; we will be learning how to locate countries and cities on maps of both the UK and the wider world. We will then learn to compare different places using map symbols.
Below is our class text all about Liverpool.
Science
In science during the Summer term we will be learning all about light. We will start by exploring shadows and how these are made. Once we understand this, we will design our own investigation to find out how the size of shadows change. This will be linked to our Liverpool art work of making skyline silhouettes.
Following on from light, we will begin to learn all about plants. We will look at the different parts of flowering plants and what they are used for. We will also learn about the lifecycle of a plant. Once we have a really good knowlegde of flowering plants we will carry out some investigations, finding out what plants need to help them grow and what happens if we change this! Things could get messy!
